3-for-6, HR; extends hit streak to 12 games.
Jason Varitek, Red Sox
Solo shot gives him 12 RBIs in his last 8 games.

6-for-9 with 2 homers, 5 RBIs in his last 2 games.
Ichiro Suzuki, Mariners
Went 4-for-4 and drove in a career-high 5 runs.

Other players had better nights, but the bargain bin fantasy stud becomes the 4th man to reach 100 RBIs this year.
Chokin’
Javier Vazquez, Yankees Has allowed at least 3 runs in every start in the 2nd half.
Cliff Lee, Indians Roughed up for 8 runs in 3 1/3 innings. Remember when he was 10-1?

Cliff Floyd, Mets Keeper of the golden sombrero: 0-for-4 with 4 whiffs Tuesday.
Jaret Wright, Braves Lit up for 5 runs and didn’t even last 1 inning. Ouch, ouch, ouch.
